First of all you should not use brackets in the new format.
Second, why do you need PPP, unless this is a router that also authenticates
into your ISP's adsl radius server?

Ditto.

No brackets in the new file format as previous message advised and as I said
above, think again if you need PPP authentication performed by your Gentoo box
(because your new router does this now).

Don't need these at all.
